Hero Rats
cat cryptids, part 2 (a year later)
I think when I first saw this character design, that was my nonbinary awakening because all I knew was that I wanted to have *exactly that energy* and now a few months later, I'm playing a nonbinary deep sea genasi monk that regularly licks rocks and has a glowing antenna like an anglerfish.
WayfarerAsh on twitter commissioned me to design a nonbinary D&D character for them! They left the rest of the details up to me!
So I came up with an Earth Genasi Goliath and had SO much fun working on them! I was so flattered they trusted me with this!
The fae smiled, sharply: “Give me your name, child.”
“Uhhhhh. Stick.”
“What.”
“Does Leaf work better? I’m just kinda looking around this clearing. Look, I’m trans, I haven’t decided on one yet, I’m throwing some spaghetti at the wall, you know how it is.”

We’re only finding out recently that a lot of animals have colors and patterns that we cannot see because they’re outside of our visual range. It calls to attention how much of the world we can’t experience because our senses are limited. When we shine UV lights on them, they glow pink or blue, but these are the colors that we CAN see…. they could be a bunch of different colors, which we SEE as all pink. It’s also interesting to consider that most of these animals are not aware of having glowing patches on their bodies…. isn’t it also possible that we have skin or hair patterns that were not aware of? . . (There is actually some research out there to support the idea that our own skin fluoresces as well and that there are gender differences in the pattern and glow.)
